Isaiah 57:15-18

15 For thus says ^lthe One who is high and lifted up,
who inhabits eternity, whose name is ^mHoly:
ⁿ“I dwell in the high and holy place,
and also ^owith him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,
^pto revive the spirit of the lowly,
and to revive the heart of the contrite.
16 ^qFor I will not contend forever,
nor will I always be angry;
for the spirit would grow faint before me,
and the breath of life that I made.
17 Because of the iniquity of his ^runjust gain I was angry,
I struck him; I hid my face and was angry,
but he went on backsliding in the way of his own heart.
18 I have seen his ways, ^sbut I will heal him;
I will lead him ^tand restore comfort to him and his mourners,

on the third day he will raise us up,
that we may live before him.

^adto set at liberty those who are oppressed,
